20's with what drop? Pics?

I'd like to run 20's on my 69 fblt. What drop do I need to look preportioned right. I still need to tow my boat when done. Pics would be cool. Or other suggestions

Not sure what you mean by "proportioned". There are a lot of trucks running 20's on here with all sorts of drops. It depends on how low you want it, or if you want it even vs. raked. Depending on the weight of the boat, you might want to run bags in the rear to keep your stance when towing.

i have pics http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2533285
4.5/7. if your gonna tow, i'd maybe go with something around a 3/5. that way you still have some clearance from the axle to the frame
